Jammu, Feb 10: Senior political leader and former Union minister Karan Singh on Tuesday questioned the decision to shut down Vaishno Devi Medical College, calling it an unjustified move that has harmed education, employment, and future academic opportunities in the Jammu region.
Addressing a public gathering in Jammu, Dr Karan Singh said the closure of the medical college was difficult to comprehend, particularly at a time when access to higher education needs expansion rather than contraction. He said the institution had the potential to accommodate an increasing number of local students, including Dogra youth, in the coming years.
